Flea Market FUN

Can you guess where Bob and I went from above photo... top right is Bob drumming his fingers while waiting....

When we arrived at the flea market we went straight to Karen's Gold by the Inch and at 8:40 the booth that is supposed to open at 8 was locked with chain link on it. We wandered until 9 and came back and took a seat at the tables across the aisle. By the time she opened at 9:20, Bob had drummed a hole in the table with frustration..

We went to replace Bob's necklace that he lost for the THIRD time....and FINAL time, it was solid gold and worth around a thousand dollars..

NOTE: I TOLD him a dozen times to sell it for the gold and replace it before it was lost for good.

2nd Note... I gave it to him for Christmas our first year together, 1985.

3rd Note... the gold guy wanted 1885.00 for his... YIKES...

The short story is he got a 75.00 stainless steel dipped in gold replacement...life time guarantee. woo hoo

I love the corn growing fence!!! So did you or Bob say anything to her about being so late? While I DO love the fence, just for photo beauty I adore the retro red and black table and floor, it is a divine shot and would be perfect hanging in a fancy diner. Glad you got such a good deal on the necklace, LOVE the drumming!!!!

Sorry to hear about the necklace, but maybe the tractor would have been a good idea. I wish I had a dime for all the things I have lost...I could buy two or three necklaces. Best to keep it big these days. lol.

Sorry about the necklace. At least the replacement has a guarantee. Like Ginny I love that fence, that is just too cool. And speaking of cool I want that tractor. I don't want a riding mower but I would go for a Farmall!

Ya'll are TOO FUNNY!!! Don't you guys get up at some outlandish hour in the mornings and go to the gym?Love that painted fence! There is one painted with Longhorns and bluebonnets a ways over past Fort Worth. They just look so neat!!

Oh...he lost it...period! better not to think about it: If it happened to me I would be sick!!!A tractor...hahahah...YES!KissBShell(I had to quit Blogger because I was having a bunch of anonymous offensive comments)blueshell.azurara.net

I hardly ever wear expensive jewelry because of fear of losing it... On the other hand what good does it do to have it in a drawer! The pieces I have that I like best are not gold but I'd still hate to lose them because they are (more or less) unique as they were gifts or inherited etc.

Some years ago I lost an expensive watch with lots of diamonds on it. A gift from Frank. He bought me a replacement, not as expensive but as nice. I still miss the original and wonder where I lost it. I love the last photo of the old wagon bed. :)
